Pablo Picasso uttered those famous words and the Illawarra Mercury is asking you to take a leaf out of the famous artists book and get creative.
Three years ago, Destination Wollongong board member Leigh Colacino had an idea to bring cruise ships to Port Kembla.
In October 2016, 2400 tourists from Royal Caribbean’s Radiance of the Sea will be let loose on our region.
The Illawarra has 12 months to gets ship shape for the visit, but also to come up with some brand new attractions and destinations to give the visitors the best possible taste of this wonderful region.
We are giving you a chance to play the role of tourism entrepreneur.
Put your thinking cap on and come up with the best idea for a tourism attraction this region could offer for our new visitors in 2016.
The person who has the most popular new attraction idea or development wins the ultimate Wollongong prize worth more than $5000.
Our judging panel will select five ideas to be voted on by our readers.
